Getafe form and stats

When playing at home in the La Liga, Getafe have managed 7 wins, 6 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 16 games. With three draws from their last three games overall it has been a case of neither great nor terrible for Getafe. The home fans are hungry for more even though Getafe have been steadily collecting points here at Coliseum Alfonso Pérez through three straight draws.

Getafe manager J. Bordalás Jiménez and his team return home after a 1-1 draw away versus Real Valladolid (placed 14th) in the La Liga. The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 1-1 versus SD Eibar.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Getafe have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found six matches with the results: Won four, drawn one and lost one.
